When asked about the reasons behind creating this event, host Dave Kennedy explains:
“DerbyCon isn’t just another security conference. We’ve taken the best elements from all of the conferences we’ve ever been to and put them into one. DerbyCon is a place you can call home, where you can meet each other, party, and learn.”
ACE Hackware founder and Chief Hacktologist, Taylor Banks adds: “It’s easily one of my favorite events to attend and participate in. It’s a great conference with great organization and great speakers, made even better by great attendees.”
